VoiD Graph for LOD hosting instance of Virtuoso

All,

Finally!  We have a coherent cut of a Linked Data graph that describes 
the data hosted by LOD Cloud hosting instance of Virtuoso 6.0 Cluster 
Edition [1].

We now have a graph that offers practical foundation for generating the 
LOD cloud from an RDF based Linked Data Source.

You can now perform real-time statistical analysis against the LOD cloud 
data [2] -- that we host -- courtesy of the aforementioned VoiD graph.

A dump of the VoiD graph is also going to be part of the public data 
sets to be exposed on Amazon EC2. And you will soon be able to make 
personal and service-specific renditions of what our particular instance 
via EC2 AMIs. Your data space will be live in minutes i.e., time it 
takes for the Virtuoso DBMS to start with the LOD Cloud data pre-loaded. 
Of course, you will also have the option to build the entire thing from 
scratch yourselves using Virtuoso or any other RDF Quad / Triples store 
capable of handling the data corpus etc..

We are now going to add: Riese, OBO mappings to DBpedia, and Drug-Bank 
data to the LOD instance, so bear this in mind if the performance is 
erratic for the next 2 hrs.

Other Features of the Virtuoso LOD Instance:

1. Autocomplete style Entity Lookup by Label
2. Autocomplete style Entity Lookup by URI
